Is there an app in Cydia that will let you launch any app when you double tap the home button?
 
I'm surprised Apple hasn't created this themselves actually.

Shazam with double-click would be AMAZING.

Apple lets you choose from the following double-click choices:
Home
Search
Phone Favorites
Camera
iPod

I'm pretty sure there is a cydia app that does this but the name of the app isn't coming to me. Hopefully someone else will remember.

Ok after some searching I found an app that does this. Add the touch mania source and search for custom homebutton. It has some apps already added that you can use shazam being one of them. If the app you want isn't added then you can add it by adding the bundle identifier manually.
 
I use iPodPop (mobilesubstrate addon).. it pops open the iPod currently playing window regardless of whether or not the iPod is playing when you double tap the home button. iPod touch users should remember this.. that was the one thing i hated about switching from the iPod to iPhone, I'm so glad this program exists.
